well, it's funny you ask that at this particular time. The last few days here, comcast's signal has been going from absolutely amazingly fast, all the way down to NO SIGNAL AT ALL for 2 minutes or so, sometimes 2 minutes and sometimes longer. REALLY handy when you're trying to say PLAY a game orrrr, download something you have to have in order to complete a project etc.
Calling comcast Tech pinheads is always a treat. They EVERY TIME will blame our equipment for any problems, even as we sit there and watch the indicator lights on the cable modem all go out and then a few minutes later come back on. I think the best time so far, yesterday, was when i asked them " HEY just for the heck of it, are you guys able to test your cable modem from where you are, to see if your equipment has any problems?" ( I sat there for a few seconds waiting for them to complete whatever , holding the completely disconnected/unplugged cable modem in my hand)
" Sir we are showing no problems at this time. It must be your equipment not ours."
So my guess is, reasons like i just described!
